Need quick info" what TIR can I hold with a rigid,tailstock mounted thread die holder
So my 60's era Clausing lathe is in immaculate shape and holds truly surprising tolerances. But she don't cut metric wrinkles.
I'm coming up with a long term solution. But I need the cut metric threads....about .75" thread length on the shank of a high precision shaft...NOW.
I really need the short section of threads threads to be within .00035 TIR. I might could live with .0005" but that is absolute max and unwelcome.
Is their a snow ball's chance I could hold this with a rigid, Morse taper thread die holder?
I'm pretty sure...no way! But they say it never hurts to ask.
Much thanks.
